Women's Brains React Surprisingly Quickly to Erotic Images
Fox News ^ | 06-14-06 | Robert Roy Britt

Posted on 06/14/2006 9:29:07 AM PDT by TravisBickle

Erotic images elicit faster and stronger electrical responses in a woman's brain than do images of any other sort.

The finding might not sound groundbreaking, but researchers did not expect such rapid responses to erotic images, which seem to involve different circuits than the processing of other images.

I just don't get it.

I could never be a homosexual. Ever.

If I were a woman, I would be a lesbian.

Women are so incredibly, amazingly, inconceivably hot. How anyone, male or female, could choose a man over a woman is mind boggling.

Women must have something wrong with their brains that they can find men to be physically attractive.

That fireman picture makes me SO want to be a drop of water!

...women who have lives want men to bring their own lives to the table.

Well said, and my wife of 15 years most enthusiastically agrees with you. But we also have single/divorced female friends who seem to suffer from "Material Girl" syndrome. In fact, before I met her, I was a poor working schlub living in a studio apartment in NYC, where I recall dating more gold-diggers than ever lived in the Klondike. My personality did get me pretty far, but once it was apparent that I was not an ambulatory ATM, the young ladies seemed to lose interest (for which my wife is now grateful. "Aren't you, dear? Dear?")

I have seen a picture that made me SO want to be a drop of water. But I can't post it here. :0)

Oh, and it didn't have no man in it.

LOL!

I do understand. It's a good way to weed out the golddiggers from the real women. I'm glad you found your wife!

Yep, three hours of foreplay.

Sure...for her. And then you have to put on that dusty frock and walk across the bedroom floor on your knees.

Thanks. Me too, but I'm still not convinced that she, or most other women, identify the same images that most men do as being "erotic". I mean, we might both agree on a naked couple rolling in a field of tulips, but things do diverge after that.

I happen to believe you're not the only man to think that.

Women are so incredibly, amazingly, inconceivably hot.

I think you mean "some women."

You don't want someone posting a picture of H.T.

Women must have something wrong with their brains that they can find men to be physically attractive.

Nothing wrong with my brain :) Here's my starter list:

A sexy/manly voice is a huge bonus with me

A man with nice hands

Five o'clock shadows on the weekend

A man with a laugh that makes me laugh

A man with strong arms who gives gentle hugs

"Naked couple rolling in a field of tulips". Hmmm, he told me he destroyed that picture.
